Total joint arthroplasty has brought manifold benefits to patients suffering from joint diseases, but the durability of prostheses remain a persistent problem, often requiring correction through revision surgery. Among the issues remaining to be resolved are wear and periprosthetic osteolysis after total joint arthroplasty.
Today's researchers are investigating the pathogenesis and reduction of osteolysis and wear, and practitioners and engineers are working together to develop new types of prostheses for total hip and knee arthroplasty. This book presents the work of eminent orthopedic surgeons, biomedical engineers, and other researchers who have devoted their efforts to the creation and implementation of more durable total joint prostheses.
The latest information on new concepts and clinical trials is included, with chapters on ostcolysis, recent developments in metal-on-metal and ceramic-to-ceramic articulation, and future trends in total joint arthroplasty.
